Measurements of PbWO4 crystals behaviour under irradiation
نویسنده
چکیده
Lead Tungstate crystals for the CMS detector at LHC have to withstand severe levels of radiation. Presented here are measurement techniques and results on crystal behaviour under gamma irradiation from tests at ETH/PSI in conditions similar to what is expected during operation of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter. Presented at International Workshop on Lead Tungstate crystals, Rome, Italy, October 1998

PbWO4 nanoparticles: A robust and reusable heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of benzopyranopyridines under ultrasonic irradiation
An efficient four-component synthesis of benzopyranopyridines is described by one-pot condensation of salicylaldehydes, thiols and 2 equiv of malononitrile with nano-PbWO4 as a robust and reusableheterogeneous catalyst under ultrasonic irradiation. Lead tungstate (PbWO4) nanostructures have been synthesized via a sonochemical method based on the reaction between l...
متن کاملOn the origin of the transmission damage in lead tungstate crystals under irradiation
The origin of the transmission damage in PWO crystals is discussed. It is shown that both electron and hole centers created on the basis of structural defects in PbWO4 crystals contributed to the induced absorption of the crystals. The different aspects of the suppression of the recharge processes in PWO scintillation crystals are also discussed. 1 Bogoroditsk Techno Chemical Plant, Bogoroditsk...
متن کاملRADIATION INDUCED COLOR CENTERS IN A LA DOPED PbWO4 CRYSTAL
This report presents result of a study on radiation induced color center densities in a La doped lead tungstate (PbWO4) crystal. The creation and annihilation constants of radiation induced color centers were determined by using transmittance data measured for a PbWO4 sample before and during 60Co -ray irradiation at a dose rate of 15 rad/hr. Following a model of color center kinetics, these co...

متن کاملComparison between high-energy proton and charged pion induced damage in PbWO4 calorimeter crystals
A PbWO4 crystal produced for the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS experiment at the LHC was cut into three equal-length sections. The central one was irradiated with 290 MeV/c positive pions up to a fluence of (5.67± 0.46)× 10 cm, while the other two were exposed to a 24 GeV/c proton fluence of (1.17 ± 0.11) × 10 cm. The damage recovery in these crystals, stored in the dark at room temper...
